Josiah's First Christmas

It was a very Merry CHRISTmas! The Lord has blessed Dani and I so much during this last year that we are filled with great joy! It has also been a new season of experiencing the love that God poured into this world by sending His Son Jesus! It is through the birth, life, death, burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ that we can have Hope here on earth and for eternity! We are so thankful that God has used us in many ways this year to minister to the teenagers in our church and the people in our apartment complex through Apartment Life. God has blessed us this year with a beautiful son which we name Josiah based upon the OT story of King Josiah. God has blessed us this year by providing for our financial needs through family and friends. We have posted some pictures that represent some of these joys! If you have never surrendered your heart to the Savior of this world then don't wait another minute and stop right now to give your life to Him! Confess your need for salvation, ask for forgiveness for your sins and turn your life over to Him. Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Well, its been a few weeks since we have updated but there have been some pretty significant events that have taken place the last several weeks. It was Josiah's first snow in Houston and it was enough to make snowballs. Check out the photos! It was also Josiah's first rice cereal feeding! He is doing such a good job with sucking the slop it is amazing! Although, after tonight's feeding he decided to share some with mommy! Our little man is getting so big-so fast! We took him to the doctor where he got two shots and I wasn't sure who was crying more mommy or Josiah! He is now weighing in at just over 16lbs and he is still in the 95 percentile for his height. He is going to be bigger than my brother Todd! Hope you enjoy the pics!

its been too long

We have found out that Tim and I are not the best bloggers. We have the best of intentions but some how it seems to be pushed off. Josiah is going to be 4 months this Monday and can I say WOW the time flies. I look at pictures from when he was first born and think to myself was he really that small? Well any ways we have been busy but whats new. It seems like November came and went with in a week. We got to go visit Tim's famly for thanksgiving and see his best friend finally get married. (LOL about the finally) We left Nov. 20 to drive to Oklahoma for Cordell's wedding then flew out of Oklahoma that morning to Denver Colorado. We got to go to a Denver Broncos games with Josiah (first mistake). The weather wasn't too cold until you got to the very top of the stadium where we sat and had the wind blowing on us then it was very cold. Josiah needless to say didn't like the wind and then when he would get to sleep the crowd would start yelling and stomping and wake him up. Josiah and I didn't last past the first quarter then Tim met us at half time and we left. When looking back we wanted Josiah to be apart of this milestone but should have left him with his aunts Sara and Megan but what can we say you live and learn. We stayed at Sara and Justin's apartment on sunday night then drove to Casper Wy. Josiah was such a trooper through all the traveling we have such a great baby. All of the family loved meeting Josiah and spending time with us. We feel the time went too fast but it was great to get away and be with family. On the way home we realized that Josiah along with us were in 4 states in one day. I know that has to be some type of record. We have now un packed everything and are now re-packing for the state youth convention this weekend in Austin. It should be a good weekend but we will be ready to be done with the traveling. Its crazy the way things will change when you have a baby to think about. Well I think that I have said everything I have to say so I will say goodby for now and hopefully will return with more soon.
